Robert Farr writes to the Pope asking for help to enable his wife and himself to be full members of the Catholic Church. He provides a detailed explanation of his circumstances from a young man being brought up as a son of a protestant verger, though being away in Burma during the war, to meeting his present wife and marrying her. Problems arise because he is divorced, protestant, married in a Registry Office: he may not become a Catholic; his wife is barred from receiving the sacraments. He wants to put this right. He has been taking advice from Fr Riley.
